Kenyans Ask CNN To Apologize Over CNNI Report

Kenyans are upset about a news report that appeared on CNN International. The report–about the deadly grenade attacks in Nairobi last week–said that the violence was “widespread” throughout the country, and featured a graphic with what looked like a scorched Kenyan flag (photo right via).

The correspondent in the CNN piece, David McKenzie, apologized for the “banner” on Twitter, but said that the reporting in the piece was accurate:

Our reporting onlast night was accurate, the banner used in bulletin was not. I contacted CNN for future bulletins. Apologies to all.
